Leylandii Hedge revamp project
I Green
9 years ago
There is a mature leylandii(I think) hedge about 10meter long, in our back garden. Over the years it was left to grow and it must be 2.5 meters wide and half of it is protruding into our garden, rest into our neighbour's
I tried to cut it back, but this has left some dead patches which will not grow anymore. My preference will be to get rid of it altogether, but it belongs to our neighbour.
I have a plan to take the bottom branches off up to 1.5 meter. Top section will be trimmed to shape or in cloud pruning style.
I am however worried that I will make this worse and it will spoil the look as, although I don't necessary like, it is a bit of greenery when viewing from the house.
Keen to know what you think of my plans. Can you give me any other ideas?
